The Brew Division of Thermal Technology recently designed a new generation of horizontal, front loading, graphite
resistance heated furnaces for multi-purpose applications. These furnaces are high
temperature (1000șC to 2500șC), high vacuum and/or controlled atmosphere with uses
ranging from research and development to small production process runs.
Many companies within the thermal processing community have recently
taken the approach of not outsourcing their heat treat, brazing, annealing and sintering
needs. These companies now elect to take full control of their process and product quality
by being able to schedule and prioritize the availability of their furnace. They are also
able to have direct control over contaminants and impurities within their heat zone.
Many of our customers have adopted cell management techniques which
achieve faster response with smaller production loads of "in-house" orders. This
shortens their delivery schedule and allows them to be more flexible to their
clients needs. To help our customers accomplish these goals, Thermal Technology
offers standard furnaces with a one or two cubic foot useable work volume that require a
minimum amount of floor space. Standard optional features include high vacuum, hydrogen,
inert gas, recirculating gas cooling, computer control and binder removal systems.

These smaller furnace systems typically have a shorter cycle run time
compared to larger furnaces since the time to heat-up the product to equilibrium and the
cooling time have both been reduced. A unique feature provided on these furnaces is a
"sculptured" graphite heating element that is machined to improve temperature
uniformity within the work volume for critical applications.
